Want To Know Tommy Hilfiger's Fashion Week Rituals? We Thought So

Tommy Hilfiger: King of preppy chic, American sportswear legend, and...serious yogi? The designer tells Slaves to Fashion all about his pre-fashion week rituals (and his recurring nightmare!), after the jump...

Tommy Hilfiger has always been a bit of a style clairvoyant--predicting the importance of hip hop in fashion almost two decades ago, packing his front row with celebs before it was de rigeur, and choosing Lincoln Center to show his collection before the rest of the fashion world was told to do the same just this week. Maybe all of that yoga he does helps him tap into another dimension?
